Why California is a SHITHOLE

[asaratis]

This is the result of liberalism gone wild. No other state should be required to support California by way of taxation.


*****************
Beautiful California has gone from red to deep blue and from rich to poor. In fact, it’s the poorest state in the union. The state is now the poverty capital of America.

The California state and local governments spent nearly $958 billion from 1992 through 2015 on public welfare programs, including cash-assistance payments, vendor payments, and other “public welfare” according to Census Bureau.

In an op-ed by Kerry Jackson for the LA Times, the author reports that California, with 12% of the nation’s population, California also has a disproportionate one in three welfare recipients. The generous spending meant to reduce poverty appears to have increased it, she observes.

Why California Is the Poverty Capital of America! It’s About the $958 Billion

You do know California pays twice what the next state, Texas pays, right? It’s only been posted like a thousand times.
The real poverty area is Appalachia. Which covers 13 Red States. Everyone knows that.

You do realize that California gets back over $100 Billion MORE than Texas does does, right?

Lol,

Califorina is a first world state next to most of the south.
-Higher standard of living
-Higher quality education
-Higher quality healthcare

You fucking cave men are so stupid that you probably should go back to school. idiot.

Higher standard of living? Maybe in some of the rich parts of LA, SD, BH, HW or some of the other big cities, but in a while the standard of living is well below other states!

Did you really say education?!?!? Lol CA is notorious for having a shit school system.

Healthcare, other than the hospital and doctors for the elitist, the CA healthcare system is notorious for being shit.

Nice try Smokey. There are 3 CAs: (1) the One you see in the movies for depicting a 10% elitist class, (2) Everyone else living in the lower class which includes families making less than $150 a year and (3) the illegal aliens who are destroying healthcare system and schools and breaking a bloated budget!

CA decided after Reagan left office they would squander their rich infrastructure and economic might in favor of selling out to illegal
aliens and failed leftist ideology!

I've found that right wingers who criticize California usually come from Mississippi, Georgia or Alabama.
It's called extremely jealous.

No --- I LEFT Cali with a huge pile of Cali dollars to Tenn. Where they SPEND better and the govt WORKS on it's fundamental responsibilities to the taxpayers. Not plastic bag bans or fining waiters for handing out plastic forks..

Lots of my acquaintances here are ALSO Cali escapees. Family down the road lived 6 miles from my old place in the Coastal hills of SF bay..

Jealous is LAST THING that folks in the South think of Cali you nidget.. First thing they think of is mismanagement, crystal worshippers, hollywood egomaniacs, and fruits and nuts..

 

[flacaltenn]

MOF --- It's not just the South. It's the Plains states, Midwest, RustBelt, Mountain States that chuckle at Cali.

Ask an Oregonian if they are JEALOUS of California...

Easy answer....democrats.

You should tell that your buddies. For some reason theres a lot of HATRED against California. Almost every week.

I just don’t understand that.

This is like telling you. Your house 2aguy is shithole. Is that a nice thing to say?

Why can’t we just stick with the topic and talk DECENTLY without trashing people or places?

This is where I go ballistic sometimes.

LOL! You who says a mail carrier is a lowlife scum bag dare to criticize others for saying California sucks? Laugh my fuckin' ass off!!!

Are you talking to me Mr. Shithole?

I and a lot of other sane posters are talking to you, asswipe! Unfortunately, you are incapable of listening.

To many wetbacks in Cali for me. Place sux

our minimum wage is scheduled to go up and will help generate more tax revenue.

Raising the minimum wage does little more than raise prices....and increase the use of robotics.

California is a shithole!

HEY SHITHOLE HUMAN BEING.

Don’t you ever get tired? What the fuck did we do to you that you are so fucking bitter about California?
Get a life.

Just because you have no legitimate rebuttals to what I post here doesn't mean I'm bitter about California.

California is a shithole...that's all. California government thinks it can ignore US immigration laws. In doing so, it has turned itself into a shithole and threatens the entire nation with and endless stream of worthless fucking criminals and violent gang members.

I don't hate Californians. I hate California's government. Get with the program, shit-for-brains!

No legitimate rebuttal? REALLY? I MEAN REALLY MR. SHITHOLE?

Read post #375, 378, 386, 406, 485, 490, 503, 507 etc etc etc..... where I was trashing a piece of shit like you. Because you don’t really know anything much about Ca.

So far most of your post are nothing but shit this and shit that because you are a piece of shit despicable human being.

The only mistake I made against you .... was I thought you live here...... But you don’t even live here. All your information is cherry pick bad parts of California.

Keep trying MR.SHITHOLE.

We want to lose low wage jobs that don't pay enough in taxes.

Minimum wage earners pay little or nothing in taxes. Raising the minimum wage will not raise the tax burden of workers already earning more than the new minimum.

why do you believe it won't? Higher paid Labor simply spends more, creates more demand, and pays more in taxes.

It may generate more sales tax. Income tax, not much if any. A salary based on $15/hr grosses $31,200/yr.

it also beats the cost of social services; currently at around fourteen dollars an hour.

Interesting thread.

The biggest shithole on the planet is the one that offers the highest standard of living for a special few while making the rest live in vans and cardboard boxes under bridges in abject poverty. The biggest shithole on the planet is the one that offers higher quality education in principle, yet mostly turns out kids that can't even find Canada on a map and spend their days rioting, breaking windows and turning over police cars because someone disagrees with their views. The biggest shithole on the planet is the one that offers higher quality healthcare to only those that can afford to pay for it outside the system and 3rd world care for all the rest within it.

The biggest shithole on the planet is the one that offers greater benefits, incentives and protections to people who aren't even citizens of our country.
The biggest shithole on the planet is the one that stands defiant against our nations laws protecting violent criminals so they can return to the streets to hurt others.
That biggest shithole on the planet is none other than the once great state of California, land of fruits and nuts.

 

[danielpalos]

We simply need to pioneer new cities from scratch.

One doesn't have to try hard at all to find articles proving California is a cesspool of rampant liberalism, a faltering economy, and a haven for illegal alien criminals. The fact that I don't live there has nothing to do with it. The fact that you are trapped there living in your basement gives you cause to defend your condition.

I've already read the posts you listed. What the fuck makes you think I would read them again? Nobody in their right mind would deliberately read posts from a shit-for-brains child like you.

The reason California is the best state in the union, is because we never talk about the weather.

California -- 20+ years in Silicon Valley. COuldn't let my daughter go to High School there and continue to evolve into a Valley Girl. Needed to FLEE with the phony inflated Cali money from my house before a earthquake ate it. Since the State stepped in it and screwed up the Earthquake insurance program. If you think they are DeadArse broke NOW --- wait until they have to pay out (or have their re-insurers pay out) for a major quake damage event.

Too many reasons to list. THRILLED to live in Hillbilly Hollywood, Tennessee now..

 

[flacaltenn]

BTW Mr Clean .... How's that LA-SF "bullet train" coming? I hear it's getting close to the four hours I told EVERYONE it would be. Not to mention the exponentially exploding budget for it..

Don't you wish that was a couple major water projects about now?

Politics as usual?

However, as you might have heard, the train is in trouble. As it copes with a persistent volley of antagonistic litigation, a high cost of $64 billion, and even political challengesenabled by the Trump administration, the bullet train’s boosters and builders have a challenge before them.--https://sf.curbed.com/2017/9/19/16331308/high-speed-rail-california

Why not end the drug war so we can make money, not lose money.

One good thing about California weather is that some localities do not need air conditioning. One bad thing about it is the concentration of wildfires caused by lightning.

...and pay more in addiction rehab, chasing criminals, funeral costs....?

 

[flacaltenn]

Nope. The ill-conceived and badly managed "bullet" train is just the confirmation of a govt that TOYS with fantasies. Like your fantasy of rebuilding new Cities from scratch. It's about priorities, focus on their BASIC duties and financial responsibilities. NONE of that is happening in Unicorn riding Cali..

It's the ATTITUDE and lack of competent debate on things that you'd expect from a one party state galloping towards Marxism. I don't CARE about political direction. I CARE about the failure to govern..

The legislature has long ABDICATED it's job.. By filling up ballots with INITIATIVES that no fuzzy headed Cali is gonna be competent to decide. Especially with the equivalent of 20 or so State Bills of Law to decide on. THey are manipulated by media propaganda and mostly UNQUALIFIED to make those decisions which requires TOO MUCH WORK to understand.

You're being governed --- "by the crowd"... And I'm gonna help you out here. . You can't UNelect "the crowd". You're being herded by largely mobs of morons who don't take the time to be governors...

we do that now; due to collateral damage.

Why not invest in better public transportation and new cities?
